What is a Student Career Advocate?

Student Career Advocates (SCAs) wear many hats. They are, first and foremost, students. But they are also advisors, interview coaches, researchers and resource developers. They are mentors, presenters, program organizers and instructors. They are student leaders. In a nutshell, Student Career Advocates are the initial liaisons between students and the Career Services professional staff, and often the first point of contact when interacting with Career Services. But they are so much more than just that. We set our expectations high for our Student Career Advocates... and they exceed them every day.

So, what do SCAs do?

Open and close office; cover front lobby desk and answer phones

Provide PROFESSIONAL assistance to customers: students, alumni, employers and faculty/staff
